Guided by these core values, the Miles College education involves students in rigorous study of the liberal arts as preparation for work and lifelong learning; in the acquisition of verbal, technological and cultural literacy; and in critical community participation -- all as a prelude to responsible citizenship in the global society which they will help to shape. Miles College is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (1866 Southern Lane, Decatur, Georgia 30033-4097, telephone number 404-679-4501) to award bachelor's degrees.

Miles College offers Bachelor Degree programs with majors in Accounting, Biology, Biology Education, Business Administration, Chemistry, Chemistry Education, Communications, Elementary Education, English, Environmental Science, Language Arts Education, Mathematics, Mathematics Education, Political Science, Social Science Education and Social Work. 

Academic Affairs selects competent and caring faculty and staff who are demonstratively committed to educating its more than eighteen hundred students from humanistic perspectives and in the liberal arts tradition.

At Miles, students develop holistically inside and outside the classroom, through a variety of on and off-campus cultural, intellectual, spiritual and social activities. All-faculty advising and comprehensive tutorial assistance at all levels support students' desire for academic success.  Miles is that "really good little school across the way" that has a record of preparing students for careers, leadership and life-long learning.
